Here is a report that Keis wrote about a made-up bug called a Wormfly. Listen as she describes what it looks like. Listen carefully and look closely at her picture and see if you recognise her Wormfly. Well done Keis!

Ever heard of a Tributterfly? Part of our topic this term, the children in Room 10 had to design and create their own insect. As well as that, each child had to write a report for the bug that included: name, habitat, physical appearance, behaviour, diet and any other interesting facts. Well done Emmy for doing a great job!

Last week on Thursday 9th December, 2010 our whole school had prizegiving. This year it was different because we had Junior Prizegiving (Y1-4) at 2-3pm and the Seniors (Y5-7) had theirs from 7pm-8.30pm. This is the first time our school has done prizegiving this way. This movie is our item that we did on the day.

Earlier in the term, Pt England School's year 3, 4, 5 and 6 classes had an experience of a lifetime! Alongside the Auckland Rugby Provincial team and Milo, a day was organised for us to learn some rugby skills. Both girls and boys took part. Some of us even got to meet players of the team. This is Sela's writing that she wrote about what happened during the Milo Rugby Skills Day. Listen as she explains what she enjoyed the most about the day and why.

This term our topic is called "Little Critters". For writing the children learned about report writing for insects and there were four main areas that they had to write about. They were: Physical Appearance, Habitat, Diet and Any other interesting facts. Then, the children had to write a report about a bug that was made-up and named by them. This is Mary's report and she has done an amazing job. Well done Mary!
